Am I disgusting or is DH a tit?

I think DH is a tit. But just in case I'm wrong....

I cooked a Sunday roast including cauliflower cheese. All the cauli was eaten but there was some cheese sauce with a few browned bits left around the dish.

While cleaning up I scooped up some of the sauce along with the browned bits with the serving spoon and ate them. Everything then went in the dishwasher.

DH later said that he thought DD's boyfriend was "disgusted" by me eating the cheese sauce.

Surely this is a normal thing to do and he'a being a dick?

Yanbu
Tasty and nothing gross, everything in dishwasher.
If your dds bf felt anything, he was probably wishing he was licking the spoon.
Your dh was probably in a piss about something unrelated and took it out on you.

Are you overweight? I'm not judging but my friend's DH did something alarmingly similar....we had a bit of a BBQ and had them round along with some other people who they didn't know well.

At one point, I was clearing up and my friend (who is overweight) ate a handful of leftover deli meat off a serving tray as she helped me.

She later said her DH told her that our new friends would think her a pig.

She said it was part of a wider issue where he's ashamed she's a bit overweight.

Hi - “he thought” is he a mind reader? Or was he projecting - I’d usually use my finger to scoop it up - hope you enjoyed it.

DS2 and I race each other for the leftovers. Standard practice is to stand in the kitchen eating off the serving spoon wailing, 'Don't look at me, I'm a mess..!'

Your DH was indeed being a tit.

FGS, I never heard anything so daft. Either dhnor I will nab those lovely crispy bits.

He might (just) have had something to complain about if he'd come to our house when we still had a dog, and seen her spending 20 minutes licking every last molecule from any used cheesy pan or dish, put on the floor for the purpose. (It did always go in the dishwasher afterwards.)

I will throw a different angle into the mix... don’t bite my head off if it’s wrong it’s just a thought.
Are you on a diet Or did you have a huge portion for your meal? I know my DH comments if I hoover up my food but he would never tell me directly if I’m putting on weight but he may comment something like “You still eating!?” Which is useful as usually I’m eating because I’m bored. Just a suggestion. Again don’t flame me I couldn’t care less how much someone eats just a suggestion...

I think it's disgusting that you didn't use a nice slice of bread instead of a spoon!

DH is carrying more weight than me Smile

I think it's maybe a bit odd if you were still all at the table.

Idk.

I'd probably have put ot on my plate to eat or waited until I was in the kitchen.

I very much doubt that anyone was disgusted though!
